Agreed.

I was going to suggest this, and suggest changing the "ret" in
gnss_insert_raw() to return size_t. But to really do that right
it would include some other changes as well. Leaving it as an
int as Johan suggests preserves correct behavior.

One minor point below, plus a couple comments affirming that
an int return value is OK because it's always non-negative.

One return path in this function returns (src - buf), which is
*almost* guaranteed to be positive. The one case it wouldn't
be is if the assignment of end wraps around, and that's not
checked.

I think it's fine, but... That seems theoretically possible.

Here you the return value will be positive despite ret being
a signed int. So like the GNSS case, this is OK.

Same thing here.
